Three panels, formed to probe the tragic Chawbazar fire will file their reports within the next two-three days, says Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader.

“The probe reports will be carefully prepared and scrutinized. Steps will be taken based on the findings in the reports,” the road transport minister told the media on Saturday (Feb 23).

Visiting the scene of the deadly blaze, the ruling party leader said, “The government is prioritizing three things at the moment— handing over the bodies to the families, ensuring proper medical care for the injured and identifying the missing.”

On relocating the chemical warehouses from old Dhaka residential buildings, Quader, said, “The process of shifting the chemical warehouses from Chawkbazar has started.”

“The chemical storages will be relocated not only from Chawkbazar but from the entire old Dhaka,” the minister said.
